SUMMARYThis article discusses how you can use Microsoft Excel version 5.0, Visual Basic version 3.0, and OLE automation to transfer the contents of an array from a Visual Basic application to a Microsoft Excel worksheet. MORE INFORMATIONOLE Automation allows you use a Visual Basic application to control another application, such as Microsoft Excel. In order to manipulate the object of another application, you need to identify it with a programmatic identifier. Programmatic identifiers are registered in your system when you install an application. The programmatic identifiers for Microsoft Excel 5.0 are listed in the following table:
The following example demonstrates how to create a Visual Basic version 3.0
executable program that can be run from a Microsoft Excel Visual Basic
macro to transfer the contents of an array to the active worksheet in
Microsoft Excel.
